Lewistown Ills. Nov 4, 1864 Hon Ricd Yates Springfield Ill Dear Sir. I presume upon our acquaintence so far as to ask a favor. To be brief, the Rev W. K. Talbot (my father-in-law) chaplain in Hospital at Beaufort S. C. is over 64 years of age - seperated from his freinds - but in good health. We want to get him transferred to Hospital farther north. Will you write a line to the Adjt Genl at Washington in our behalf. So much for business. I regret to say our prospects are not very bright politically in Old Fulten. The Cops, can do far more with Col Oakes and Capt Westlake than we can. Two of our officers have been shot while enforcing the draft, and <hr /> we had hoped that the authorities would be sufficiently aroused to make an effort for he arrest of the perpetrators of the deed, and also the draft [disenters?]. But our Cops have bargained with the officers, that no soldiers shall be sent into the county untill after the election - which answers their (the cop's) purposes. Missouri refugees, draft skedadlers, and any one in fact will vote - Union men are disgusted and disheartened. This is the third time the Cops have wooled our Provost Marshal. Is there no remedy? Must the Govt - the United States Government, be defied by a set of cut throats in this County, and fear to cross the Illinois River, untill they get permission of the Copperheads of Fulton County? Is it not very humiliating to loyal men? The arrangement made was this. <hr /> The troops to come to Havana, Mason County and remain there. - if the Cops could not deliver dft notices, then the soldiers to assist, - drafted men to report on Thursday Nov 10.

Colona Station Henry Co. Ills. Nov. 1st/64 To His Excelency Gov. Yates: Dear Sir: on Monday last I mailed from Moline to the engineer in Chief at Springfield a Requisition with bond &c for equipments for a military company organized in Western Henry Co. under the Militia law. As a Volunteer Infantry Company. A few weeks since when in Springfield I stated the necessity of the organization & arming of such a company at this point, but neglected repeating it when I sent the requisition. I will here repeat breifly some of the reasons why I urgently request the arming of this company as soon as possible. 1st. Every man in the Company is strictly Loyal. 2d Joining Western in Rock Island County, in Coal Valley Township is an armed organization of Traitors headed by B. G. Wright. Also joining us on the North is the only disloyal township in Henry Co. and in it Jacob Sharp a justice of the Peace, has made his boasts that he has an Hundred men armed and ready to wipe out us "Lincoln Usurpers". 3d Hundreds of the Prisoners from Rock Island who have taken the oath & enlisted in our service, but have been rejected on account of Physical disability <hr /> are scattered among our farmers. They are all McClellen men, and claim the right to vote we deny it for altho they have resided in our state a year yet it was mostly a forced residence, they having been here voluntarily only since taking the oath. If we are unprepared we may have trouble from refusing them the priveledge of voting - it has been threatened. P. L. Cable one of the richest and most influential Traitors in Rock Island addressed a company of about fifty of those discharged prisoners yesterday advising them to hire out only to democrats as they were their friends &c. I might say more but it is not necessary, you will understand our case. We wish to be prepared in time to prevent trouble. I would have come down instead of writing but am working for Abe & Andy & supposed it not to be absolutely necessary for me to come. Put down Henry for 1500 majority & Rock Island for 500. The Muster roll &c I sent to Gen'l Fuller. If it is necessary for me to come down in order to procure the arms, a line to me at Colona, if you will send it, & I will come down at once. Most Respectfly Yours W. W. Warner <hr /> Warner W. W. Colono Station, Henry County, Ills, November 1st 1864.

Colona Station Henry Co. Ills. Nov. 1st/64 To His Excelency Gov. Yates: Dear Sir: on Monday last I mailed from Moline to the engineer in Chief at Springfield a Requisition with bond &c for equipments for a military company organized in Western Henry Co. under the Militia law. As a Volunteer Infantry Company. A few weeks since when in Springfield I stated the necessity of the organization & arming of such a company at this point, but neglected repeating it when I sent the requisition. I will here repeat breifly some of the reasons why I urgently request the arming of this company as soon as possible. 1st. Every man in the Company is strictly Loyal. 2d Joining Western in Rock Island County, in Coal Valley Township is an armed organization of Traitors headed by B. G. Wright. Also joining us on the North is the only disloyal township in Henry Co. and in it Jacob Sharp a justice of the Peace, has made his boasts that he has an Hundred men armed and ready to wipe out us "Lincoln Usurpers". 3d Hundreds of the Prisoners from Rock Island who have taken the oath & enlisted in our service, but have been rejected on account of Physical disability <hr /> are scattered among our farmers. They are all McClellen men, and claim the right to vote we deny it for altho they have resided in our state a year yet it was mostly a forced residence, they having been here voluntarily only since taking the oath. If we are unprepared we may have trouble from refusing them the priveledge of voting - it has been threatened. P. L. Cable one of the richest and most influential Traitors in Rock Island addressed a company of about fifty of those discharged prisoners yesterday advising them to hire out only to democrats as they were their friends &c. I might say more but it is not necessary, you will understand our case. We wish to be prepared in time to prevent trouble. I would have come down instead of writing but am working for Abe & Andy & supposed it not to be absolutely necessary for me to come. Put down Henry for 1500 majority & Rock Island for 500. The Muster roll &c I sent to Gen'l Fuller. If it is necessary for me to come down in order to procure the arms, a line to me at Colona, if you will send it, & I will come down at once. Most Respectfly Yours W. W. Warner <hr /> Warner W. W. Colono Station, Henry County, Ills, November 1st 1864. Mailed Requisition and Bond for Company organized under the Militia Law of the state, requires arms immediately to protect themselves from Guerillas and Traitors Office Engineer in Chief Springfield Nov 3d 1864 Respectfully referred to his Excellency Gov.
